Collections access is available to scholars, researchers, and community members with valid research projects by appointment, Monday through Friday, from 9 am to 5 pm. A fee may be assessed for curatorial time. The Museum loans objects for exhibit or research to other qualified institutions. Photograph requests for publication quality images of collections are assessed a fee based on the nature of the project. Requests to photograph objects in collections for research use only are considered on a case-by-case basis. Interested groups may request tours of the collections.
